Sakura Sushi & Grill, voted Best Sushi Restaurant in Albuquerque for 2021, 2022, 2023, and Best Asian Restaurant in 2024 by Albuquerque Journal, is located near Coors and Montano 6241 Riverside Plaza Lane NW, Suite C-1, Albuquerque 87120. We also just won the Albuquerque Journal's All Around Best Restaurant in Albuquerque! We are fast paced, but we pride ourselves in our outstanding wait service. We were also voted the number ONE Best Restaurant in Albuquerque in 2022 and 2023 for Take Out Service—out of over 2,000 restaurants. (No longer a category since COVID went away) In Jan 2023, we were ranked by Restaurant Guru as the Number ONE restaurant in Albuquerque, out of over 2,700. YOU will be the face of our restaurant, and we will make sure you are trained to be the best. You will start out making $12.00/hr plus some tips, maybe $3/hr, depending on your performance. Once you reach a certain level in your training, if you are average, you should be making about $33/hr, including tips—across both slow and busy shifts.
We are looking for one individual, part time (25-30 hrs/week). Full-time may be possible later. The MAIN requirement we are looking for is someone who actually shows up most of the timeon time. If you plan your job around your social life, we are not interested. Of course, speed and organization is important. You may be called on to bus tables from time to time. If you do, you will also make tips. We are CLOSED on Sundays and between 3 pm and 5 pm on other days. We are also closed for lunch on Mondays.
Warning: Our kitchen has a faster pace than most kitchens. You will need to fit in.
I am one of the owners, and my first job was washing pots and pans at 15. Loved it. My wife was a Server. Her tips, as a percentage of customer bills, were higher than anyone I know. We are looking for someone like us. Someone that takes pride in his/her work, enjoys the challenge of learning, and wants to be part of a great team.
As a Dishwasher, here are the talents we are looking for, in order of importance:
1. Have a sense of responsibility to yourself and to others (do what you say you are going to do and show up when you say you will)
2. Honest and fair with those around you (luckily, these will be the people you work with!)
3. Ability to be trained and willing to learn from your mistakes
4. Team player who can think from the perspective of other people, not just your own
5. Work hard (I believe you should also play hard, but that's just my philosophy)
Here are the common situations that we do NOT want to see in an applicant:
1. You have a significant track record of not staying very long with one employer because you typically have issues with other employees and/or the management.
2. You are untrainable because you think being corrected is harassment.
3. Your job resolves around your personal life. If you are a frequent No Show because of this, you will save us both a lot of time and effort by not applying to this job.
4. You are on hard drugs, but you think it won’t get in the way. When you work for us, you agree to be tested if your performance causes us to suspect hard drug use. If positive, we will fire you.
Come join our talented family.
If interested, PLEASE SEND A RESUME to Bill at the email listed or call Bill. You may also text Bill if you have any questions.
